Thank you to the @go2uj#JBS#MBA students for your participation, and for allowing us to engage in this difficult conversation. We see your intention, responsibility and action, and can't wait to see it in action as you continue on your path of #entrepreneurship.
Today, @MrMadasa is joining a critical discussion on #BlackLivesMatter with the @go2uj#JBS#MBA Programme. We're excited about having these intentional conversations with #entrepreneurs who show a willingness to be part of a necessary and non-negotiable shift in #SA.
What does #BlackLivesMatter mean to entrepreneurs? #Entrepreneurs have the opportunity to become catalysts for change, & make conscious decisions to be active & responsible corporate citizens that include & empower young, black #SouthAfricans.
In celebration of #FreedomDay, @MrMadasa will be sharing his thoughts on democracy, the economy, and a post-#COVID19#SouthAfrica. Be sure to catch the interview on @eNCA from 14:15 TODAY.

We believe that it’s time for B-BBEE thinking to move away from a short-term, compliance-driven approach to one that integrates B-BBEE into core business strategy. #2019reflections
Many South Africans agree that broad-based black economic empowerment (B-BBEE) has yet to deliver economic freedom for the majority. #ReimagineSA Executive Director, @MrMadasa wrote an article last year that highlighted some ways to enhance B-BBEE so that it unleashes more value.
It is wonderful to see corporate philanthropy and volunteerism moving towards an approach that gives the beneficiary more of a voice, engages employees as active citizens, and takes a more strategic, long-term approach to making a difference. The way it ought to be. #ReimagineSA
